"Agreed Romanelli... This is a perfect Dylan album minus opening track (however I did like that song when I was a young kid)... too bad it isn't a real album... Positively 4th Street is probably one of my favorite songs from him lyrically. All of these song not only have his great poetry, but the ..." [+] Reply

"Well, thankfully it's not a return to the follys of Carnival Of Light or Tarantula. They're still the same band that made those records, but more importantly they're still the same band that made Nowhere or Going Blank Again. To be specific, this is the direction Ride should have taken in 1993, w..." [+] Reply

"Yep, I don't see anything this year beating this album. Beforehand it was Pallbearer's Heartless as my AOTY. This beats that by a margin, the nostalgia is real. I'm finally listening to fantastic stoner rock again, thank you Elder!" Reply

"Gal's legendary 1st live record, a double LP. The amateurish recording gives it an intimate feel _ in the acoustic numbers that open it, seems that she's singing in our living room. The songs with the whole band show us Gal at her most emotional and less technical. An important document of a hars..." [+] Reply

"This live album has actually stood the test of time it is not that bad as far as live albums go. Captured live in the U.S.A. there are some different takes on some well known songs Suffragette City and the Jean Genie stand out along with a live version of Knock On Wood." Reply

"Great album, probably my favorite of theirs. If just rating on the meat of the album, it might be a 95, but with 30 or so minutes of silence at it's ending and an extremely bass heavy mix, it's a 90. Favorite songs, Hurricane and Tangy Zizzle are both pretty great." Reply
"A heartbreaking tale. This is a perfect record for me, a couple of songs im not that into but great work nonetheless . Such an impeccable voice and incredible songwriting. If i were to list my favourites, it would take more than half of the songs here." Reply

"A mild disappointment. The lyrics are insightful and well-written as always, but the uninvolving combination of spoken word and the subdued production doesn't add up to a great album." Reply
